Four d0 transition metal oxide/fluoride compounds of V(V), Mo(VI), and Ti(IV), with the 鈥?D layer鈥? 鈥?D zigzag chain鈥? 鈥?D linear chain鈥? and 鈥?D cluster鈥?structures, have been hydrothermally synthesized, by the structure-directing self-assembly of Meimi/Viimi/imi ligands, and other transition metal Zn(II)/Cd(II) ions. The structure-directing property of d0 transition metal oxide/fluoride anions is responsible for the tunable syntheses of novel inorganic solids with structural diversities, while the distortion of the d0 transition metal oxide/fluoride polyhedrons, owing to the second-order Jahn鈥揟eller (SOJT) effect, is the key to engineering the structure-directing property.
